Garco Construction/Integrus Architecture will be leading the project for the new Craig Road Elementary School. The school will hold 500 kindergarten through 5th grade students once it's complete. In the November election, a $72 million bond for the district passed with over 62% voter approval. A majority of that bond money will go toward building the new school. The firm selection process began in January followed by an in-depth selection process. Following a February meeting where the selection committee scored the remaining firms on how well they would be able to meet the needs of the district, Garco Construction/Integrus Architecture came out on top. Design work for the new elementary school will begin in April. Construction is expected to start in March of 2026. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Question Deadline 01/16/2025 at 5:00 PM PT Last day for proposers to submit written questions on the RFQ by 5:00 p.m. to TURNER & TOWNSEND HEERY Cheney Public Schools #360 requests qualifications from Progressive Design-Builders to construct a new elementary school in Airway Heights using the procedure permitted under Chapter 39.10 of the RCW, as amended, for selected projects for public works contracting in lieu of sealed bids.
